Inflammation of the esophagus usually does not require anti-inflammatory drugs.
Commonly used medications for esophagitis include proton pump inhibitors (e.g., omeprazole, rabeprazole), gastrointestinal dynamics (e.g., domperidone, mosapride), and mucosal protectants (e.g., aluminum-magnesium plus suspension, teprenone capsules).
Inflammation due to esophageal tuberculosis may require anti-tuberculosis drugs such as isoniazid. Esophagitis due to viral infection may require antiviral medications, such as ribavirin. Medications such as fluconazole and ketoconazole may be considered if there is a fungal infection. Patients with esophagitis need to pay attention to a well-structured diet and avoid irritating foods.
For the treatment of esophagitis medication, it is recommended to consult a doctor for guidance and take medication as prescribed.
